    Don’t listen to me. Listen to @KamalaHarris answer the question on whether or not Joe Biden was right when he said his 1994 Crime Bill didn’t make mass incarceration worse. IT DOUBLED THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN PRISON in just 10 years.pic.twitter.com/pvDUtpbaWX

        And @BernieSanders voted for it too. Over a LONG CAREER B in politics, you are allowed hindsight. I'm glad you have never, ever, ever been wrong.

        The end result of Bernie's vote was mass incarceration of people of color.

        I'll be frank and tell you two Democrats that I am 99% sure I won't be supporting - primarily because of their dismal history on criminal justice reform over the course of their entire careers. Joe Biden & Kamala Harris. They both helped build & advance mass incarceration.

        Kamala harris was responsible for mass incarcerations in California. Where at any point had she ever spoke against the grim bill before now?

        Folks, The Federal Crime Bill Did Not Double The States And Cities Prisons. State And Local Republican Legislators Contributed To Mass Incarceration Levels. According To Prison Policy Initiative State Prison Levels Are 1.3 Million And Local Jails 612k. These Are The Facts🤷🏽‍♂️

        Most Of Those Incentives Were Added By Republicans For The States To Outsource Prisons In This Country For The First Time. The Republicans Turned What Was A Non Profit National Prison System Into What Could Be Easily Termed The New “Jim Crow” By One Issue Progressives.🤷🏽‍♂️

        @JoeBiden should own it and should fix it. The crime bill have some bad part, war on drug is hand in hand with prison for profit.
